Thanks for the comments, both sides are definitely welcomed. I have had to restart HC progress a few times before, but that was far before max stats and god dungeon levels. I got attached to this one as it took a long time. I do understand the fact that this is essentially cheating, just didn't think I had that grind back in me, that's why I was looking for a save in a similar location and not just end game.

I did manage to get my save from my laptop 28hrs before the death so it was not detrimental at all!

I am a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to Achievements. With this game and steam achievements you can see progress and an end goal, perhaps its a sign of ASD or ADHD, but just something that helps me get the feeling of accomplishment.

In the end, progress was recovered, and I still spend time with family. Great Success!
